Control Lock
The Control Lock shuts down the control panel pads to avoid unintended use of the microwave oven. When the control is locked, only the Vent Fan and Light pads will function. To Lock/Unlock Control: The microwave oven and Timer must be off. Touch and hold OFF for 5 seconds until 2 tones sound and a lock icon appears in the display. Repeat to unlock and remove the lock icon from display.

To Turn Off Valid Entry Tones: Touch and hold the number pad �1� for 5 seconds until 2 tones sound. Repeat to turn tones back on. To Turn Off All Tones (except end-of-Timer and hidden feature signals): Touch and hold the number pad �2� for 5 seconds until 2 tones sound. Repeat to turn tones back on.

The Timer can be set in minutes and seconds, up to 99 minutes 99 seconds and counts down the set time. NOTE: The Timer does not start or stop the microwave oven. When the Timer is in use, the microwave oven can also operate. To see the countdown for 3 seconds when the microwave oven is in use, touch TIMER.

Timer

Vent Fan
The vent fan has 4 speeds: high, medium-high, medium and low. To protect the microwave oven, if the temperature from the range or cooktop below the microwave oven gets too hot, the vent fan will automatically turn on at high speed. It may stay on for up to 1 hour to cool the microwave oven. When this occurs, the vent fan cannot be turned off. To Turn Vent Fan On/Off: Repeatedly touch the VENT FAN 4 SPEEDS pad to cycle through the 4 speeds, and then turn the fan off.

To Set:
1. Touch TIMER. If no action is taken after 1 minute, the display will return to the time of day mode. 2. Touch the number pads to set the length of time. 3. Touch TIMER or START. If TIMER or START is not touched within 5 seconds, �START?� will appear in the display. If TIMER or START is not touched within 1 minute, the display will return to the time of day mode and the programmed function will be canceled. When the set time ends, �END� will appear in the display and 1 tone will sound. Touching OFF while a cook function is active in the display will cancel the cook function, not the Timer. To cancel the Timer, touch TIMER or OFF while the countdown is active in the display. The length of time can be changed during the countdown by repeating the above steps.

Cooktop Light
The cooktop light has 3 settings: on, night and off. To Turn On/Night/Off: Touch LIGHT ON/NIGHT/OFF pad repeatedly to cycle through the settings.

Demo Mode
The Demo Mode is ideal for learning how to use the microwave oven. When set, functions can be entered without actually turning on the magnetron. The microwave oven light will come on, the fan will run, and if on, the turntable will rotate. To Turn On/Off: The microwave oven and Timer must be off. Touch and hold TIMER for 5 seconds until 2 tones sound and �d� appears in the display. Repeat to turn off and remove �d� from the display.

MICROWAVE OVEN USE
A magnetron in the oven produces microwaves which reflect off the metal floor, walls and ceiling and pass through the turntable and appropriate cookware to the food. Microwaves are attracted to and absorbed by fat, sugar and water molecules in the food, causing them to move, producing friction and heat which cooks the food. � Do not lean on or allow children to swing on the microwave oven door. Do not operate microwave oven when it is empty. �

Do not overcook potatoes. At the end of the recommended cook time, potatoes should be slightly firm. Let potatoes stand for 5 minutes. They will finish cooking while standing. Do not cook or reheat whole eggs inside the shell. Steam buildup in whole eggs may cause them to burst. Cover poached eggs and allow a standing time.

Food Characteristics
When microwave cooking, the amount, size and shape, starting temperature, composition and density of the food affect cooking results.

The turntable must be in place and correct side up when microwave oven is in use. Do not use if turntable is chipped or broken. See �Assistance or Service� section to reorder. Baby bottles and baby food jars should not be heated in microwave oven. Clothes, flowers, fruit, herbs, wood, gourds, paper, including brown paper bags and newspaper, should not be dried in microwave oven. Do not use the microwave oven for canning, sterilizing or deep frying. Paraffin wax will not melt in the microwave oven because it does not absorb microwaves. Use oven mitts or pot holders when removing containers from microwave oven.

�

Amount of Food
The more food heated at once, the longer the cook time needed. Check for doneness and add small increments of time if necessary.

�

Size and Shape
Smaller pieces of food will cook more quickly than larger pieces, and uniformly shaped foods cook more evenly than irregularly shaped food.
